There is a gap in the industry today for in-depth knowledge and skills in implementing technical privacy requirements. Certified Data Privacy Solutions Engineer (CDPSE) is the first technical experience-based certification of its kind that validates the certification holder’s expertise in implementing privacy controls into their existing and future systems, networks, and applications. CDPSE provides a valid and reliable means for enterprises to identify technologists who are competent in incorporating privacy by design into technology platforms, products, and processes, communicating with legal professionals, and keeping the organization compliant efficiently and cost-effectively.
